Nope!

I love car enthusiast in general, I have respect for everybodys choice. Some cars won't be my choice, but that's another story. I think everybody made his own decisions for the choice of there car(s).

I love Alfa Romeos when I see one, but I bought last year a 155 and it is the last Alfa I ever will buy again. I always said that I never would buy a Mercedes, but this week I did.

I never wil buy a ferrari, because I think they are to expencive (one I like), but when I win the lottery ( a few times) I buy a Enzo.

The US cars was alway in my blood, because in my younger years I was infected with it, the sound of the V8 rumbles in my body.

Hey, find your own!

Actually, the '71 Fleetwood is for sale, but it needs work. One cylinder has low compression and the driver's seat is torn. If I were you, I'd hold out for one in better condition.

At least you're honest! But yeah, I'm not into doing an engine rebuild right now, I don't have the space. And I'm savin that effort for my 400+hp 351W I want to put in my Mustang.

I had a 1997 Chrysler Sebring JXi Covn. and traded it in for a '04 Mazda6 last month.

The Mazda6 is nice, stock v6 3.0 engine gives out 220hp. Had an AEM Short Ram Intakes installed and added maybe an extra 10hp to it but threw the engine light off so had to take it off

Overall nice size sports sedan with decent handling and a cheap price

proud owner of

an 02' Ford Focus, ZX3 (the three door hatchback), 2.0 liter Zetech 130 hp, 130 lbft.

Black on black, with a 5 speed manual. I like it, it's got a pretty versatile interior with the hatch and folding rear seats. The manual keeps it interesting, and it gets pretty good milage. Handles pretty well too, tops out at a governor limited 115 mph (yes I know from experience, and that's also the highest speed I have ever attained).

One of the better things about owning one, nobody doubts the fact that you do.

They are kind of forgotten. Their still out there and the price isn't all that bad if you look around. They are just usually not found locally. Intenet is a wonderful thing!

Thanks Slicks, if you wanted one, you just have to take your time and search. You can still find descent ones for $25-30K but you have to search and be patient. Insuranec was not bad either. It is a little over $300/yr with collector car type driving limitations.
